Just picked up some from Ed (Pro Angler Tackle) at CAT meeting last night. I saw half a dozen or more that did also.
I've tried all kinds of hybrids and high tech lines, keep coming back to mono.
Looking for high knot strength, abrasion resistant, Hi-Vis, high breaking strength, supple, heat and cold resistant and no memory. Is that asking too much!!!??? grin cheers

Lake Fork Trophy has a line out or comming out called Flourotex pan fish. It is hi vis orange. I tried it today and really like it so far. 8#, .011". I normally use braid and fluoro leader so it can't compare in sensitivity, but this line spooled and handeled great. I miss tying knots with mono, great knot strength and very low memory. Hard to describe but it seems very limp for a fluoro coated line. The only dislike is they still put there line on a spool with the hanger tab on it! I spool line on my Sustain with the line comming off the spool from the bottom with the spool held vertical and this tab is always in the way.

I've been using the neon fire Sufix Performance Ice Braid and I think it matches all your requirements there!

Vicious makes a line that I really like! It's super strong, no twisting or tangling yet...I've been fishing it in heavy brush and straighten my hooks out before breaking the line...im using panfish 6 lb. on a 10' crappie hunter.doesn't get little burs on it from brush....not a real expensive line....I think 4$ for 100yds...reason I got it was that it was the only hi-vis line at wal-mart and I was in a bind! But I'm pretty impressed...I've bought "higher qaulity" line that I wasn't nearly impressed with! Just my 2 cents
